Tactic Servo Snafu

The recently maidened Hobby King Sbach 1200mm is grounded since I changed the servos to the new Tactic TSX10. The included servo arms are probably common in length, but they are narrowed at the end. I needed to drill the holes a bit larger, at the last hole but this made the material too thin for my liking. These were not going to work. Searching on line gives some conflicting data on the spline, but I think they are all Futaba 25T, same size across all the servos but the TSX5. I had ordered Futaba Micro arms, but they are too small, so I think the data is correct that the standard size spline for the Futaba fits all of them. I will be ordering a set tonight...

About Me

Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man. ~ Bertrand Russell
